Love this car. Silver chariot, black is positively evil.  :evil:

Love it.

Gotta have 4-doors, DSG, ACC, leather, SatNav, sunroof, 19" alloys (silver not black which is way OTT).  

Anyone know UK prices yet?

Golf R - almost on order - 5-door, DSG, Rising Blue, leather, 19" alloys, RNS510 with Dynaudio, ACC, Sunroof, Parking camera and sensors, luxury pack and cruise control.

Scirocco R is available in "Rising Blue Metallic" in the Konfigurator. Golf R is not - initially at least.  :undecided:

This just damn right stupid. Cant think of any logical reason why it should not be available.

What VW, your Roc painter not willing to lend his blue paint brush to the Golf painter........?  :angry:

It's probably a low volume colour compared to the others. By holding off on supplying Rising Blue initially, the factory can guarantee a suitable volume of orders comes through before introducing the colour to the production line. Not a problem for the Scirocco line, as it's already there.

I find it surprising.

Golf Mk 4 R32 was originally ONLY available in DBP (Deep Blue Pearl).
Golf Mk 5 R32 was available in DBP FROM LAUNCH.

Find it strange they would be worried about "suitable volume of orders".

But, hey ho. My last Mk5 R32 was DBP, so happy for a change.  :undecided:

black wheels - they make the car look like someone has pinched the wheels and left it on bricks.

They did say there maybe a delay in rising blue metallic looks like this is the case.

hmmmm I was thinking if the monza shadows were powder coated black and have those red trims around the edges, is definately better looking than the black interlagos rims...

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?
